Information Travels Faster
Death Cab For Cutie
The Photo Album (2001)

I intentionally wrote it out to be an illegible mess.
You wanted me to write you letters,
but I'd rather lose your address and forget that we'd ever met
and what did or did not occur sitting in the station it's all a blur
of dancehall hips, pretentious quips, a boxer's bob and weave.

Here's the kicker of the whole shebang: you are in debt and
completely fooled that you can look in to the mirror and
objectively rank your wounds.

Sewing circles are not solely based in trades of cloth:
there are spinsters all around here taking notes, reporting on us
as information travels faster in the modern age.
As our days are crawling by so slowly.
